ITACS Webinar: Career paths for IT Auditors
The main takeaway I got from this webinar is information about IT Auditors career paths from speakers that work for Chubb. Shortly, IT Auditing is management and evaluation of IT controls, data integrity, and information protection. IT Auditing can be internal within a company or external working for one of Big 4 companies. Not only I learned what career paths are in the world using degree in Information Systems, but also I found that IT Auditing is a career path that is similar to my career interests. Speakers mentioned about other positions that we can have using our MIS degree, and I found it interesting how you can utilize MIS degree effectively and get experience in many different fields.
I found it interesting that employers are not expecting any technical skills from applicants as they can be learned in the job position; however, important soft skills such as communication, ability to learn, project management is very valuable for most employers and expect applicants to have experience utilizing these skills.
